Pros: Chad Cons: Just about everything else. The story is pretty interesting in the sense that there is none and by none I mean what the fuck is this story? The whole plot of the story can be summed up as "We are looking for big foot and we are pretty fucking bad at it.". If you think the main characters might, in any way, be competent I want you to think about this situation. *Random spot light turns on* Chad turns to you with a twinkle of hope in his eye "I know what you're thinking, but there might be a big foot up there" The search for spotlight usin, game camera abusin big foot continues. The bounding boxes in this game are ridiculous. As you're walking around you will undoubtedly run into several invisible walls and think to yourself "Maybe this is the border too the map" and you, sir or madam, would be incorrect. Almost every rock in this game has a huge square bounding box over them in a lazy attempt to make boundaries. You will almost never find yourself actually steppi...

Played through this game not knowing what to expect as I'm no horror fanatic. That being said this is a well made game, especially for the price. Its suspenseful and what storyline that is there is very interesting so props to the devs for making this, I'd definitely recommend playing through this as there are four different endings. Keep in mind there is no save system so once you hit "begin" you're in it until you're done. I currently only have the second ending. I have an 18 minute playthrough to the 2nd ending here, it does have commentary and it spoils so if thats not your thing don't click it and try yourself! https://youtu.be/nKqlOTQymj0

Very cool and very creepy game indeed! When I was recording I did encounter a couple of bugs, but nothing crazy. I love the fact that there are multiple endings so I'll be sure to come back and find the rest! I've been waiting for this game to come out for about 2 months and can say it was pretty worth it. For maximum terror, don't go to bed the night before like I did! XD Now to go take the trash down in the dark in an area that's know to have a lot of deer. Weeee!!!

It's not great, collision detection is bad, and game relies more on rote memorization rather than by communicating anything to player. Add the obtuse story, and you have a grade C Horror Kind-of game.

This game had been sitting in my library for almost a year. I decided what the hell might as well see if this game had any content. Boy was I surprised; this is a masterpiece of a game. Albeit a short game, it is definitely worth multiple playthroughs. I would recommend referencing a game guide to help (https://steamah.com/the-deer-achievements-endings-guide/). Lets cover the pros and cons. Pros: An Absolute Gem Smooth FPS around 250-350 Multiple Game Modes A Memorable Gameplay Experience Save Money by Never Needing to Play Another Game Again Understand the Secrets of The Universe Ascend Into Godhood Cons: My Dad Still Hasn't Come Back with Milk and Cigarettes :(

The game feels intresting and has alot of potential, if the graphics were better. Overall it needs multiplayer its boring to play it solo.

Not a great walking simulator. The graphics are ugly, performance is bad, almost everything looks the same, it's short. Also you can get stuck at some objects. Still it's not a terrible game, especially for the price.
